The VGIC code uses the lock_all_vcpus() function to make sure no VCPUs are
run while it fiddles with the global VGIC state. Move the declaration of
lock_all_vcpus() and the corresponding unlock function into asm/kvm_host.h
where it can be reused by other parts of KVM/arm64 and rename the functions
to kvm_{lock,unlock}_all_vcpus() to make them more generic.
Because the scope of the code potentially using the functions has
increased, add a lockdep check that the kvm->lock is held by the caller.
Holding the lock is necessary because otherwise userspace would be able to
create new VCPUs and run them while the existing VCPUs are locked.
No functional change intended.
